I just feel like I've been suckerpunched in the stomach.

My sis in law (who helps out once or twice a week) and I took the kiddos to the park today. Nothing eventful happened. Whilst we were there a couple of daycamps came to play as well.

We left for lunch and then I got a message on my voicemail that made me want to vomit.

The message was from a blocked number. The caller (a man) did not leave his number or name. He just stated that he was very concerned as he and some other people witnessed one of the staff members smacking a child in the stomach, spanking another child and shaking yet another. He wanted to let me know so that I can handle the situation accordingly.

I'm flabbergasted. My sis in law and I were in each others eye sights the whole time. We never did any of these things. So I'm terrified that this person is trying to stir up trouble, got me confused with another group or what?? I don't know. The fact that he did not leave his name or number gets me very suspicious as to what his motives are. Suspiciously enough, 20 min. later I get a call from a woman looking for daycare for a 2 year old in Sept. I'm wondering if this is another provider maybe fishing?

I just don't want this person spreading horrible lies or getting my daycare confused with another group? I have always been professional and respect my charges. My sis in law who has been doing daycare for over 10 years in the past would never do this either.

What would you do? I can't track him down to even ask him to describe this "staff member" who was hurting the kids.

The only way he would have gotten my number is off my sign on my lawn which means he either followed us (which means he got the "right" group) or is trying to cause me problems. Why???
